Fuming – oil portrait painting

I didn’t set out to paint an angry woman, but it kept going in that direction. I just went with the flow. I mean, why bother fighting the muse? Her face is so extremely red, it was hard to photograph it, but I got it as close as I possibly could.

This is an oil portrait painting of a troubled, fuming woman. It was painted on panel using artist quality paint. Available here.

I was going to calm to redness down a bit, but I decided to just leave it be. I think the emotion represents half of the US after the election, so many will relate.

Video of the making of this painting will be uploaded Wednesday morning at 10am on my Youtube channel. I’m making weekly videos once again. If you haven’t subscribed yet, be sure to do so. You don’t want to miss out.

Above all else, it is about leaving a mark that I existed: I was here. I was hungry. I was defeated. I was happy. I was sad. I was in love. I was afraid. I was hopeful. I had an idea and I had a good purpose and that’s why I made works of art. – Felix Gonzalez-Torres
